Hi

I am searching for detailed descriptions and information about how to start
PovRay from a self written 3d-program.

I use Delphi for coding my 3d-application and want to do following steps:
- set appropriate Povray preferences (e.g. run only one instance)
- export a 3d-scenery as PovRay file (write a SDL-file)
- get PovRay execution path (registry entry)
- start PovRay (v3.6.2 or beta) with SDL-file
- immediately continue own application after PovRay was started

useful hints and links to all these points are welcome...
